Cake Catastrophe (video; un: Sly Blue and RuffRabbit)
[ The scene may not be an usual one. There's a fire alarm blaring, the haze of smoke and the dismayed sound of a man who has fallen prey to some misadventure in cooking. Aoba whines about how he's ruined a birthday cake he toiled over for hours, makes a fuss at how he couldn't have possibly got it wrong, all the while trying to shut off the alarm.
Noiz is naturally filming this culinary disaster as it happens and is presenting it live on social media. Don't forget to hit subscribe, folks.
When he pushes open the door to the kitchen, there's enough smoke that it's left a dull haze hanging around the kitchen even with the ventilation fan on full blast and a certain blue-haired young man is flapping a dish towel frantically before the oven. The door is open and it belches smoke, makes him choke and cough as he hauls out the burnt remains of what may have been a cake.
He clearly did not do the cooking by the book, either through sheer laziness or by using some messy recipe and the cake turned out crazy. It looks more like a blackened bit of sponge than anything edible.
It’s at this point that the camera turns a bit to show the plain-faced cameraman, who reaches forward to rip a chunk of the blackened cake up from the smoldering mess, to take a bite.
Of course, he makes a face. Eyeing the camera now, he shakes his head. ]
Someone should teach this idiot how to bake.
Or at least point him to a cookbook.
[ And apparently, that’s too much for thevictim star of the video to handle, as he runs toward the cameraman, hands out to take the comm from him. ]
You complete brat! Are you filming this?! Don’t eat that garbage, what are you doing--!?
[ Looks like the show is over, unless you want to reply to the video that now abruptly shuts off to help this pair of fools. ]
[ ooc: Aoba's dialogue is in blue, Noiz is in green. ]

This is a nightmare... I ruined Noiz' birthday cake!
He ate some of it, even though it was burnt into coal!
no subject
But oh dear, is he all right? He didn't get a stomachache, did he?
no subject
He seems okay... but I'll keep an eye on his condition today. What a pain...
...Do you know how to bake, Mugi?
no subject
You did a good job with that cake, though?
no subject
Yeah, sure.
If the cake recipe was called 'burnt cake', I scored a perfect 10.
no subject
And even if you don't think it's good enough, you can learn from this and become better next time around. See? Progress!
no subject
Really nice of you to say, Mugi...
[ Even if he knows he messed up and has a long way to go, it was still the gentlest way he could have put it. He seems like a considerate, upbeat guy... ]
How are you settling in anyway? Are you doing okay?
no subject
[ google How do you deal with an age-regressed friend ]
no subject
Is your friend sick? Do you need me to bring over any chicken soup?
[ Aoba you were just made famous on the 'net for burning a cake don't offer to make people food. ]
no subject
I'm very sure he'll get better soon. For now, you should check up on Noiz-kun and see if he's doing all right. And maybe make it up to him?
no subject
[ AOBA... YOU HAVE NO IDEA... HOW SICK EICHI IS... ]
Mm! I will!
I'm taking him someplace special for putting up with me!
no subject
Are birthdays really that big a deal?
no subject
no subject
I see.
I've never celebrated it before, so I never thought of significance like that.
I always considered 'New Years' to be a bigger occasion for 'living another year', as I could often hear the fireworks from my room on that day every year.
no subject
But birthdays are a lot more personal. Celebrating it with the people you love rather than the festive mood of a new year... It's a lot more special that way.
no subject
He's looking at this part of the message a little like how a dog looks at the source of a high-pitched sound.]
...
I see.
Now I get it.
New Years is for everyone, birthdays are personal...
That's why this idiot is going through all this trouble.
[It's like explaining foreign concepts to a literal alien. You're doing well, Aoba.]
no subject
He might not have done a great job on it, but you can tell that he's worked this hard just for you. You're that special to him.
[ TSUMUGI DOESN'T KNOW......... ]
no subject
....
That's what you see?
[The text sounds confused, but... curious, almost, in tone.]
I annoy him on purpose, and then he turns around and does stuff like this.
It's kind of funny.
[YOU HAVE... NO IDEA...]
no subject
[ OH YOU SWEET SUMMER CHILD ]
Just don't let him down too much, all right?
no subject
...
Don't let him down?
What do you mean?
[You can almost HEAR him say this, leaning in with genuine curiosity and all.]
no subject
Never mind! I don't want to intrude on your business! What I mean is that... please consider his feelings and how hard he worked on your special day. At least don't be too harsh on him?
no subject
...You're getting so flustered.
You're funny, too.
It was just a question.
...
I'll think about what you said.
